Lately it's been more like have to drive it what with gas prices and still trying to work out the kinks from when I dropped it.

but you're right it is still fun to drive. Looks like you'll get to drive yours again before too much longer.

I like the first one better - just kidding. Nice job, it looks a lot cleaner now.

protrash64 · 03-31-2008, 08:51 AM

That looks really good......makes the old door look like an air brake off a fighter!

After we left Los Pick-a Parto I was thinking that it would be a good place to practice chopping tops if we bring enough batteries!

bouncytruck · 03-31-2008, 07:34 PM

Looks nice. The shape of the new door fits the body lines much better.

Big J · 03-31-2008, 10:23 PM

The new door looks way better. Nice job of fitting it in there. How did the aircraft stripper work for ya? Did it do a good job?

Nice! I like how it lines up w/ the marker light. I spent a lot of time deciding on placement when I cut the door in on my truck's bedside. Looks like you got it spot-on

**jaros44sr** · 04-02-2008, 07:47 PM

You're version looks way better than the PO'S. In thread #234, did the po recss his whole door assbly?

What year and what are the HP#'s? I just picked up an 05 Vortec 5.3/4L60E for a new shop truck but know nothing about the HP#'s. It really does not matter because this thing will not weigh very much but will be one smooth ride. Here is the before and the look I am going for. I just ordered a TCI MII front end with Power rack, Disk brakes, Sway bar and air bags. For the rear I have a 95 T-Bird 8.8 IRS with Disk, Sway and Bags as well. This will be my son's first truck in another 15yrs

but if I just let it sit it will be a pile of rust so I figure might as well cash in on the Patina fad for now and get it on the road.

Awesome Build!!! I saw the pics of the truck when you had seats in it... Do you have any of the full interior? I want to do the exact same set up, with the 3rd row suburban and the front bench with integrated seat belts...

lyrikz · 05-21-2008, 07:13 AM

Im so glad i didnt buy a set of the patriot heads. They dont sell them anymore.. I called a shop who had one set left. ALMOST bought it. Figured there was a reason as to why they werent being made. ahaha..
